"Beware of Images" - quote from the new documentary

"We live in an age of hyper-reality, where the authentic is gradually being eclipsed by its endless representations, where every new layer of mediation stands between us and the natural world, where forgeries have so viciously attacked the original that they now reign victorious in its place, and as the forgeries themselves are relentlessly replicated we are left with infinite simulations of that which never existed,"
- from the movie, "Beware of Images"-
